## What you need

Your *número de candidato*. It looks something like `2601AB12345`. It is not your identification
document number and it is not your registration reference, which is why people who assume they can
use their passport number get stuck.

Some centres also allow a lookup using your identification document number instead, so it is worth
trying if the candidate number has gone missing.

## If you cannot find your candidate number

Work through these in order:

1. **The registration confirmation email.** The code is sent when your registration is confirmed.
   Search your inbox and your spam folder for messages from CAPLE or from your centre.
2. **Your registration form.** The code is printed on it.
3. **Your centre.** Contact the LAPE where you sat the exam. They hold the registration records
   and can tell you your number.

## Print it the day you find it

The results page has a print button, and the view behind it shows the quantitative and partial
results rather than just the headline classification. Save that as a PDF immediately.

There are two reasons this matters. First, it is the only record you have until the certificate
arrives, which is weeks away. Second, the partial percentages per language activity are the only
diagnostic feedback CAPLE will ever release.

## What you will not see

CAPLE states plainly in its exam regulations that it does not give detailed information about the
quality of a candidate's performance. You will never see your marked script, the examiner's notes,
which questions you got wrong, or any comment on your speaking test.

So if you are planning a resit, those partial percentages are all you have to plan with. Read them
carefully, find the component that sank you, and target that.
